TruClean™ Servo WirecutBuilding on the success of Baker Perkins’ proven TruClean™ Wirecut design, the new

TruClean™ Servo Wirecut brings improved automation and flexibility to the production of wirecut cookies and bars. Best-in-class weight control is achieved through die and filler block technology unique to

Baker Perkins wirecuts. Adhering to Baker Perkins’ TruClean™ standard, the TruClean™ Servo Wirecut has been designed in accordance with the latest industry guidelines

on sanitation to reduce cross-contact risks and cleaning times.

Baker Perkins supports every piece of equipment throughout its life, with a comprehensive programme of parts, service, upgrades and rebuilds. Parts are available around the clock, while our team of service engineers can assist with both repairs and routine maintenance. Existing equipment may be rebuilt to extend service life, and/or upgraded to improve performance.

Servo-driven for precise, one-touch recipe control A two-axis servo system provides infinite variability to the cutting and return paths, enabling optimum cutting performance at high speeds or on difficult dough. Tailored profiles can be created for each individual product and loaded at the touch of a button. Intuitive touch-screen controls provide full process visualization, historical trending, alarm history and recipe management.

Unique die and filler block technology for precise weight control The TruClean™ Servo Wirecut offers outstanding weight accuracy. The filler block ensures consistent product weight control across the band, with less giveaway and less waste. The clamshell head allows rapid, tool-free removal of the filler block and die assembly for cleaning and fast product changeovers.

Unique dual servo system with low operating and upgrade costs Fast changeovers, low waste and minimal giveaway along with easier cleaning reduces operating costs; open access, fewer moving parts and easy removal of components means maintenance costs are also reduced. The traditional mechanical system, with many manual adjustments, has been replaced by a unique dual servo system with minimal parts. The new TruClean™ Servo Wirecut is compatible with existing Baker Perkins filler blocks and dies.

Encapsulation moduleFilled cookies can be produced on a standard wirecut machine using an optional encapsulation module. Baker Perkins’ encapsulation system can be fitted to any wirecut to convert the machine from a standard unit to one that can do both cookies and encapsulated cookies. Fillings can include any ingredients which are low enough in viscosity, including chocolate, caramel, cream, peanut butter or jelly.

Feed rolls with fixed gap help achieve best-in-class weight controlAn inverted hopper eliminates bridging to maintain even weight control across the band. The hopper is removable for easy cleaning and access to the rolls. Static end plates provide accurate seating for the filler block to eliminate leakage from the hopper. They are easily removed for cleaning, and protect the bearings from contamination.

Filler block ensures consistent product weight accuracy across bandLess giveaway and waste lead to fewer packaging problems. The pneumatically operated clamshell head enables rapid removal of die and filler block from either side, for easy cleaning and quick changeover with no tools required.

Band raise enhances productplacement accuracyA servo-driven dynamic band raise mechanism enhances placement accuracy and reduces damage and alignment problems, especially with high speed running or difficult dough.

Hygienic design and durable buildThe base is a fully welded construction with continuous sanitary welds, sitting on hygienic adjustable feet that have no exposed threads. High floor clearance provides easy access for cleaning underneath. Direct drives eliminate hygiene and maintenance problems with belts, chains or guards where debris could collect.

Hygienic guards minimise debris accumulationGuards have been eliminated wherever possible; the remaining guards are perforated to provide visibility without creating debris traps. Safety interlocks are RFID rather than mechanical. Covers open wide and are easily removed for cleaning and maintenance. The ability to make on-the-run adjustments is aided by good visibility of the product area throughout.

Patent pending servo-driven wirecutmechanism provides flexibilityA two-axis servo mechanism provides full control of the horizontal and vertical movement of the wireframe. The path is infinitely variable and specific settings for each product can be stored and easily recalled from the touchscreen HMI. The wireframe can be moved to a “park” position to improve access for wire changes.
